1 Clogged fuel filter, Airbus A32, February 6, 998 Micro-summary: This Airbus A32 diverted after the ECAM indicated there was a clogged # fuel filter. Event Date: at 24 CST Investigative Body: (NTSB), USA Investigative Body's Web Site: Cautions:. Accident reports can be and sometimes are revised. Be sure to consult the investigative agency for the latest version before basing anything significant on content (e.g., thesis, research, etc). 2. Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically. Even a "bad" report can be a very useful launching point for learning. 4. Contact us before reproducing or redistributing a report from this anthology.

2 NTSB ID: CHI98IA95 Aircraft Registration Number: N34NW Occurrence Date: Occurrence Type: 2/6/998 Incident Most Critical Injury: Investigated By: NTSB Location/Time Nearest City/Place MEMPHIS Zip Code Local Time Time Zone TN CST Airport Proximity: Off Airport/Airstrip Aircraft Information Summary Aircraft Manufacturer Airbus Industrie Distance From Landing Facility: Model/Series A Direction From Airport: Type of Aircraft Sightseeing Flight: No Narrative Brief narrative statement of facts, conditions and circumstances pertinent to the accident/incident: Air Medical Transport Flight: On February 6, 998, at 24 central standard time, an Airbus A-32-22, N34NW, operated by Northwest Airlines, had an Engine Condition and Monitoring System (ECAMS) No. fuel filter clog warning message about 2 miles from Memphis, Tennessee. The flight crew decided to divert the aircraft to Memphis, Tennessee. While turning inbound on the first turn in holding at, feet msl to burn off fuel to get down to the maximum landing weight, the No. CFM56-5A3 turbofan engine experienced an uncommanded in-flight shutdown. The attempt to restart the engine was unsuccessful. An uneventful single-engine landing was made. There were no injuries to the captain or first officer, the five flight attendants, or the passengers. The 4 CFR Part 2, Flight 82, had departed Detroit Metropolitan Airport, Detroit, Michigan, en route to Mexico City, Mexico. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and the flight was on an instrument flight plan. The examination of the engine revealed a 4-inch long (circumferential) by -inch wide (axial) burn-through in the low pressure turbine case in the plane of the 2nd stage turbine stators at the o'clock location. There was reported heat distress to the left engine pylon. The examination of the fuel pump filter revealed the presence of a bronze-colored material. The fuel nozzles were partially blocked by bronze-colored material in the nozzle jets. The engine was removed from the airplane and shipped to SNECMA, where it was disassembled under the direction of the Bureau Enquetes Accidents. The engine was equipped with an Argo-Tech fuel pump, part number (PN) The fuel pump was removed from the engine and returned to Argo-Tech Corporation, Cleveland, Ohio, for disassembly and examination. Northwest Airlines records show that the fuel pump, PN 749-2, serial number (SN) 37, had operated 7,28 hours time since new (TSN) and 6,972 cycles since new (CSN). The records show that the fuel pump had not been removed from the engine, SN 73-79, since the engine had been received by Northwest Airlines. The engine's records show that it had operated 7,28 hours TSN and 6,972 CSN. The disassembly and examination of the fuel pump revealed the pump housing had gear pocket milling. The fixed and pressurized bearings, which are made of bronze, were worn. The fuel pump's filter bypass valve was found to have bronze-colored particles on both sides of the valve. The drive and driven gears were both intact. The teeth of the driven gear were worn approximately.7 inches diametrically. The drive and driven gear were measured and compared to new parts as follows: Feature New part dimension Actual dimension Drive gear OD inches inches No - Page
3 NTSB ID: CHI98IA95 Occurrence Date: 2/6/998 Narrative (Continued) Driven gear OD The pump gear housing had gear pocket milling on the driven gear side. The housing was sectioned at the milled area and a measurement of the remaining wall thickness showed that it was.24-inches thick. The driven gear had wear that corresponded to wear on the quad-ring bolt bosses inside the housing. The remaining wall thickness at the quad-ring bolt boss was found to be.45 inches. The fuel pump has four bearings: the fixed drive bearing, fixed driven bearing, pressurized drive bearing, and pressurized driven bearing, which are made of bronze. The fixed bearings did not move freely and were slightly recessed below the split line. All four bearings exhibited wear and material loss. The bearings from the pump were weighed for comparison to new bearings. Part New part weight Actual weight Fixed drive bearing grams grams Fixed driven bearing Pressurized drive bearing Pressurized driven bearing The fixed drive bearing had a dam wipe of.4 inches. The bearing face had minor scoring. The bearing bore was in good condition. The rear side of the bearing did not show any wear. The fixed driven bearing had a severe dam wipe. The face of the bearing was worn. The bearing bore was worn.46 inches. The back side of the bearing was not worn. The pressurized drive bearing had a severe dam wipe. The face of the bearing was worn. The bearing bore was scored. The pressurized driven bearing had a severe dam wipe. The face of the bearing was worn. The bearing bore was worn.46 inches. The "O" ring and backup ring on the pressurized driven bearing were found to be cut and the "O" ring was also nibbled. (See NTSB Powerplants Group Chairman's Factual Report) The fuel control, or hydro-mechanical unit (HMU), was inspected. The examination revealed no anomalies to the HMU that contributed to the main fuel pump failure. (See Woodward Governor Engineering Analytical Report) Parties to the investigation included the Federal Aviation Administration, Northwest Airlines, GE Aircraft Engines, CFM International, Argo-Tech, SNECMA, and Woodward Governor Company. - Page a
